    How much you need to invest in a certain technology is a different story, this doesn't mean it's not virtually bulletproof. But that's why I was trying to figure out if the same technology from hardware tokens could also be implemented in another way. I guess this is what they are trying to do with Passkeys. Although I would also loved to have seen Intel's U2F technology, see link.

    Turns out that Dropbox has been hacked too, via some GitHub phishing attack which was able to record username, password and 2FA code, so I assume this was a MITM attack. They have now decided to switch to hardware tokens like YubiKey.
